HP 3PAR Application Software Suite for Oracle - Manual (Page 69)

The host name of the database server, on which the Oracle database instance is running. The
value of the database server name must match the output of the hostname command.
-t <timestamp>
The timestamp of a Virtual Copy to be backed up. The Virtual Copy name can be obtained using
the rmora_display command.
-o online
Creates an online Virtual Copy of a database while it is OPEN (online) prior to backup. This option
is ignored if a Virtual Copy is specified. The offline, online, datafile, and archlog
options are mutually exclusive.
-o offline
Creates an offline Virtual Copy of a database while it is CLOSED (offline) prior to backup. This
option is ignored if a Virtual Copy is specified. The offline, online, datafile, and archlog
options are mutually exclusive.
-o datafile
Creates an Virtual Copy for all datafiles (not including the archive log destinations and temporary
datafile) of a database while it is OPEN (online) prior to backup. This option is ignored if a Virtual
Copy is specified. The online, offline, datafile, and archlog options are mutually
exclusive. A Virtual Copy created with the -o datafile option is only useful when archive
logfiles generated during the creation of the Virtual Copy are also available. You may want to
create separate Virtual Copies using the -o archlog options, or use another backup method to
backup archive log destinations.
-o archlog
Creates a Virtual Copy of the archive log destination prior to backup. This option cannot be used
if a Virtual Copy is specified. The offline, online, datafile, and archlog options are
mutually exclusive.
-o full
Performs a full backup of a Virtual Copy. If Symantec NetBackup is selected as the backup method,
this option can be used with the -o archlog option to perform full backup of an archlog
Virtual Copy. Recovery Manager for Oracle will only use one incremental schedule name for either
differential incremental or cumulative incremental backup, which is predefined in the NBU schedule.
If Oracle RMAN is selected as the backup method, this option can be used to perform full backup
of an online, offline, or datafile Virtual Copy.
-o incr
Performs an incremental backup of a Virtual Copy. This option is not applicable for Oracle RMAN
with HP Data Protector backup.If Symantec NetBackup is selected as the backup method, this
option can be used with the -o archlog option to perform incremental backup of an archlog
Virtual Copy. If Oracle RMAN is selected as the backup method, this option can be used to perform
an incremental backup of an online or offline Virtual Copy.
-o cinc
Performs a cumulative incremental backup of a Virtual Copy. This option is not applicable for
Oracle RMAN with HP Data Protector backup.If Symantec NetBackup is selected as the backup
method, this option can be used with the -o archlog option to perform a cumulative incremental
backup of an archlog Virtual Copy. Recovery Manager for Oracle will only use one incremental
schedule name for either differential incremental or cumulative incremental backup, which is
predefined in the NBU schedule. If Oracle RMAN is selected as the backup method, this option
can be used to perform a cumulative incremental backup of an online or offline Virtual Copy.
-o incr1|incr2|incr3|incr4
Performs an incremental backup of a virtual copy. The incr1, incr2, incr3 and incr4 correspond
to incremental backup level 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively.
